however, rendered a change in the phraseology and scope of some of the forms necessary. These changes have been made in this edition; and the work has been carefully revised, and enlarged by the introduction of one hundred and twenty-five new forms. It now covers the whole range of practice, from a simple affidavit to the most technical special proceeding. The forms selected are such as have been used by leading practitioners, and obtained the approval of the higher courts.

In those states which have a Code similar to that of New York, this work will be found a convenient and safe guide.

From the Buffalo Morning Express.

This book of forms is already somewhat familiar to the legal profession. The numerous radical changes which were instituted by the Code of 1848, has called forth a very large number of works on practice and pleadings, many of which are of partial compilation, and therefore inaccurate, and many of which have become obsolete by the numerous amendments which have been made in the Code itself, as well as in the rules that govern the practice. Whatever opinions may exist in regard to the wisdom of thus sweeping away at once, all the forms which had become familiar by age and venerated by custom, there can be no doubt that much that was useless as well as a hindrance to the administration of justice, has been dispensed with, rendering it necessary in the main to rebuild the system almost entirely-a work which requires years of labor before it may arrive at any degree of perfection. The book before us is intended to provide a set of forms for nearly every emergency, and the experience of every legal practitioner bears witness to the convenience of having at hand a work of approved precedents. The present edition is much enlarged and improved, corrected and adapted to the existing rules of practice. One hundred and twenty-five forms have been added, and the publishers confidently recommend it as the most complete and valuable collection now in use.
